Im confused how this work
The numerator can be rewritten as $$2^{17}+2^{17+1}+2^{17+2}=2^{17}+2^1 \cdot 2^{17}+2^2 \cdot 2^{17}$$ Factor out $2^{17}$ and you get the given thing
Civil Service Pigeon
@frail ingot ^
we're using exponent rules to rewrite the numerator if that's what you're asking
Wait like when u wanna make 2^19 to 2^17. My teachet told me to do it like 2^17.2^2
that's
Oooh
the same thing
you have 1 minute before I head off so make it quick
$\frac{2^{17}}{2^{18}}=2^{17-18}=2^{-1}=\frac{1}{2}$
Civil Service Pigeon
Ooooooh
Boy im actually so dumb
I forgot that 1/2 existed
Thats about it

Bro break the logs fr
Like u can write log(3^2/4^2)
As log(3^2)-log(4^2)
It's log properties
Log(a/b)=loga -logb
And log(ab)=log a+logb
oh rightttt right
wait wait thanks thanks

try to find the extremes of sin(2x) / 2+cos(2x)
Please don't occupy multiple help channels.
find the derivative using the quotient rule
use chain rule and quotient rule
In calculus, the quotient rule is a method of finding the derivative of a function that is the ratio of two differentiable functions. Let
h
(
x
)
=
f
(
x
)
g
...
that's fked up
):
not really
not a beautiful solution
real
u can do that
or do logarithmic differentiation and chain rule
but u'd prefer the quotient rule if u want to find the extreme
you don't know trig differentiation or you don't know the quotient rule?
I differentiate it, and got the result
I do not even know whether it is correct or not
What
its ${\frac{(2+\cos(2x)\frac{d}{dx}(\sin(2x)) - \sin(2x)\frac{d}{dx}(2+\cos(2x)}{(2+\cos(2x)^2}}$
:D
You can say that its pi/2- periodic and an odd function so the interval of study can be reduce from R to
[-pi/3,pi/3]
oh, big brain huh
Dont develop the denominator while quotient rule since we want to study the sign its better to let it as squared
isn't the period of the function pi?
got it
ohhhh
only error is that you subtracted the numerator wrong way round, you did uv' - vu'
I see
it should be vu' - uv'
the quotient rule is a true nightmare
can someone explain how it works?
does it means I do not have to differtiate it at all
No u have to
Its just a trig tips to not have make a sign table on R, and reduce it to a Lil interval which is way more efficient
Pi/2 periodic leads to an interval of "length" pi/2 and the odd caracteristic allowed us to center make 0 the "center" of the interval
So [-pi/3,pi/3]
It is
is Yaku stands for yakuza
No, it dont xd
the extreme occurs at -1/2
cos(2x) = -1/2
2x= 150 degree or 210 degree
x = 75 or 105
is it a convention of Yakuza
Cos(2x) > -1/2
it is not an inequality
I mean cos(2x)=-1/2 is where the extreme occurs.
it is not an inequality.
You dont have to precise if its minimum or maximum ?
can't I just put x= 5/6 pi and 7/6 pi respectively into f(x)
And compare the results.
i mean we find that 5/6 pi and 7/6 pi are of the points where the extremes occur
why not just put them into f(x) and compare their outputs then we are able to distinguish the max and min.
that's more convinient, no?
what we need inequality for
You have to find with derivative not plugging some values, it does not prove
it is not just plugging values, it is solution by logic.
it does prove by the way
How do you get these btw ?
the derivative signifies that x=5/6 pi and 7/6 pi we can get the extreme of f(x)
Are you sure of the result of x ?
It should be -pi/3 and pi/3
Given cos2x= -1/2 or -2 results in f'(x)=0
Yeah so 2x = 2pi/3 or -2pi/3
That is, 2x= 2/3 pi and -2pi/3
I'm stress
to express angles with radian
Hence, x=1/3 pi and -1/3 pi is where the extremes occur
then
then
you could just plug in these two values into f(x)
and compare them
Yeah ok
This could gain you the min and max.

How do I flatten a 2d array?
Just use the flatten function with numpy?
Not nesseceraly
Wdym
Sorry, miss read it
numpy.ndarray.flatten(array)?
I mean, how do I flatten any 2d array, not neccesserekat in python
Depends on the coding language then
Okay, how does numpy do it?
If you have a matrix of coefficients $(a_{ij})_{1\leq i\leq n,1\leq j\leq m}$
rafilou2003
Then you create $(u_k)_{1\leq k \leq mn}$ by
rafilou2003
$u_{(m-1)i + j} = a_{ij}$
rafilou2003
I'm sorry, I'm confused
Tell me what you don’t understand
What's coefficents?
The entries of the matrix
You know, a_ij means the entry on row i, column j
So why do you need so many conditions?
Wdym which conditions
The 1<= i <= n?
That's the length and width of the matrix
Oh okay
Is it (m-1) * (i+j)?

Can someone help me out
Nope, are you sure? 🤔
I don't see any -∞
the answer is infinity, right?
+∞ yes but not negative ∞
Then why did you write ∞ - ∞ ? 😅
I meant infinity to infinity
like infty/infty?
The limit is between ♾️<the function< ♾️
ye
That's what I'm unsure of
cuz the limit to this is infinite
yes
firstly, the dominant's term in the top is n^2 and the bottom n
the top grows faster than bottom so it goes to infty
Yeah
no
it oscillates between 0 and 1
but doesn't matter in comparison the size of infty (n^2)
Yeah yeah it oscillates between 0 and 1 and continues that way to infinity
yes

@plain glacier Has your question been resolved?
so I was right 😏
anyhow, the last question seems pretty straightforward
Use the same idea from part b to find thee work done in moving an electron h metres through the field
Find the total number of electrons (n times length of wire)
you can probably figure out the last thing
I think that could for very small h
although, h is the distance travelled (across wire i believe) not its displacement in the field

im getting does not exist for a limit
not sure
You could recognize that sin(x)/cos(x) = tan(x)
And use your knowledge about its graph
Not always
For example substituting the x value here gives -1/0 which is undefined
but also there are cases, like functions with jump discontinuities, where the limit is not equal to the function evaluated at the limiting point
yeah i know about that
so perhaps i do tan(x)
and sub in the x?
that gets rid of the -1/0
tan(x) is undefined here
still?
Okay that's fine. Try instead taking the limit from the left hand side, and comparing it to the limit from the right hand side.
and pre cal b we didn't even touch the tan graphs
i haven't reached the left and right hand limits yet
i dont know how to get either
Well for the left hand limit for example
what you do is substitute values approaching 3pi/2, from the left
so try like 3pi/2-1, 3pi/2-0.1, 3pi/2-0.01, etc
and see what it approaches
okay
For the right hand limit, do the same thing but from the right hand side
and then the opposite for right
yes
And, the limit cannot exist if the left and right hand limits do not equal each other
ok so
when its approaching from the left i get + values
yes
from the right its the same values but negative
yes
so im guessing they're approaching different infinity
You'd notice if you kept substituting that the limit from the LHS is positive infinity, and from the RHS is negative infinity
yes
so no limit?
,w plot y=tan(x), x=(3pi)/(2)
as left and right dont exist
that looks about right
i only know cos and sin graphs haha
they skipped tan in pre cal a because we didnt have time
thanks tho

I'm really lost on this one. My problem is g(t) = sin(t^2 * cot(7t)). I'm supposed to find dg/dt. Any ideas? Is this just the chain rule?
Yes. Chain rule.
Although you'll need the product rule to compute the inside derivative as well

Not really sure how to solve this, I feel like it involves trig?
(x+0)^2 + (y+2)^2 = 25, so the midpoint is (0, -2) and the radius is 5
find the tangent line to circle and check if it passes through the point
How do I do that?
<@&286206848099549185>
formular : (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2
(x1, y1)
(x-h)(x1-h)^2 + (y-k)(y1-k) = r^2
h=0, k=-2, r=5
0+(y+2) * 25 = 25
y=-1
P(0,23) is y = -1
There must be 2 lines
1.set the formula of the line(s)
2.calculate the distance of the point to the line(s)
3.the distance equals the radius of the circle
4.solve the equation of 3.
OK 1 moment I will try it
I am on the way to my dormitory
I'll show you how to do it when I reach my dormitory
Thank you 🤗
The center of the circle. I mean the point is.
formula of your line so far is y = ax + 23 (because point (0, 23) applies to this formula)
distance of the circle's center to this line is equal to the circle's radius
you can find "a" by calculating the distance of the circle's center (0, -2) to the line
Wait, why is it y = ax + 23? what do you mean by (because point (0, 23) applies to this formula)?
I get that the point is on the line...
the line that is tangent to the circle passes through P(0 , 23)
say the formula of this line is y = ax + b
if you apply the point P to this formula you'll have:
23 = a(0) + b
so b = 23
If a point If a point is on the line with a slope a.
You can set the formula.
it this question x0 is 0
y0 is 23
What are x0 and y0?
Coordination of a point on the line
**you can find "a" by calculating the distance of the circle's center (0, -2) to the line **
25 right?
So thats the slope?
......
You need to solve a and b.
a is the slope
YYou already know the point P is on the line
one point for one unknown number
If you have two points on the line, you can solve a and b at the same time.
But you only have one point
I thought we had b=23
Of course b is 23 in this question.
because the x0 is 0
but
if x0 is not 0
you can only express b with something about a
the radius of the circle is 5, and your line is tangent to the circle, so the distance between the circle's center and the line is also 5
and you already know b, so you can calculate a by putting the distance between the line and (0, -2) equal to 5
True, I need to know how to do it without x being equal to 0
x0,y0 is the Coordination of one known point on the line
in this question , x0,y0 is P
And one point can't solve a line
so you need
One known point, and one distance between another known point and the line
tangent line, means the distance is the radius of the circle
one known point, one known distance
so two known conditions
so you can solve a line
luckily, x0 of the point P, is 0
so b is solved directly
if P is (1,23)
so you can calculate a by putting the distance between the line and (0, -2) equal to 5
Using which formula sry?
Which is 5
Don't you know the distance formula of a points Off the line to the line?
5Is the radius of the circle.
its 0,23 no?
Im not sure what you mean by off the line to the line
Like the distance between 2 points?
using the formula they used in this pic, if you have a line with formula
ax + by + c = 0 and coordinates of a point, you can calculate the distance between the point and the line using
d = | a(x0) + b(y0) + c | / sqrt(a^2 + b^2)
Yes yes yes yes yes.
nima excellent
(assume coordinates of the point is P(x0, y0) )
But why do we want the distance? That doesnt give us anything in the line
It doesnt give us a or b in y=ax+b
we need
if you want to solve 2 unknown
you need 2 known conditions
but
We only have one known point (0,23)
So
we need the known distance
since you only have every variable except "a", using that formula can get us to a
Yes
and you have P(0,23),right?
it is only one known condition
if you want to solve 2 unknown
you need to find another known condition,right?
Yes
The another condition is that the line is tangent line.
Calculate the distance and you will find another equation you have 2 equations to solve 2 unknown.
Ok so
better read these formulas on math books
|ax1 + by1 + c|/sqrt(a^2 + b^2)
yes
It's the distance between x1 y1 and the line ax+ by+ c=0
If you know a point on the line, b can be expressed by a
And x1 y1 is the intersection of the line were trying to find and the circle right?
Its not?
No
Which point is it
give me some time
Ok
i will explain completely
- you have 2 unknown.
- You need 2 known conditions
- You have one known point on the line,it is (0,23)
4.you need another condition to set another equation
5.you know the line is the tangent line
6.the distance of the center point of the circle to the tangent line is the radius of the circle
- The distance formule of one point to one line is this
x1y1 is the point, ax + by +c=0 is the line, and dont mix them up
abc are not the ab in the question
a is a by coincidence
but b is not b
b is the coefficience of y
for example
if the line is y=ax+b
it is ax -y +b =0
the a in distance formula is a
the b in distence formula is -1
the c is b
now you have 2 equations
one equation is P applied in the y=ax+b
P(0,23)
the another is
the distance = the radius
apply the center of the circle and the line to the distance formula
you can have the left of the second equation
Look at the formula of the circle
you can have the right of the 2nd equation
It is 5
the radius is 5
so
Thats all
👀
1 moment I am reading it and trying to understand
Ok
y=ax-23
y-ax+23
|ax1 + by1 + c|/sqrt(a^2 + b^2)
|(-a)x1 + (-2)y1 + 23|/sqrt((-a)^2 + (1)^2) = 5
M (0, -2)
|(-a)(0) + (-2)(23) + 23|/sqrt((-a)^2 + (1)^2) = 5
So far so good?
ax-y+23=0
Ah yeah sry
you're calculating the distance between the circle's center to the line, so you gotta use the center's coordiantes here
x1y1 is the center
Ah ok
|(-a)(0) + (-2)(23) + 23|/sqrt((-a)^2 + (1)^2) = 5
|(0) + (-46) + 23|/sqrt(a^2 + 1) = 5
|-23|/sqrt(a^2 + 1) = 5
Sorry
i thinnk you made a couple typos
115 = sqrt(a^2 + 1)
I sometimes typo
ax -y +23 = 0
But
115^2 = a^2 + 1
and y1 = -2 here, not 23
yes, but not these ones
that makes sense because from every point outside of a circle, there are 2 lines that can be tangent to it, so no need to worry about getting 2 answers
Was everything I did correct up to here?
sorry for the hideous handwriting, but this is how you apply the formula in this question
yes
Its better than mine haha
5*23
they made a typo in between and continued the question with it
Ah my bad
I got the correct answer tho
I think I know how to do it now
Thank you guys!!
❤️

I could reopen the last channel for some reason
But I reached here from this question
How do I find the value of k and a
There are 3 variables in this equation
<@&286206848099549185>
its 2 equations but 3 variables?
1
then in that case theres no 1 singular solution
1 equation 3 variables
that just means its a multivariable graph
the amount of equations needs to equal the amount of variables for there to be only 1 solution
or not 1 but like a finite set of solutions
hahaha
I divided the p(x) by d(x) and got this
i see it at other channels
That one closed
While I was trying to figure out how to solve
Huh
because x
is the variable of poly
two poly equal if and only if
coefficients equal
dont need to care about x
What
just to look at coefficients of x
two poly is the same, when their powers and coefficients equal
because it is POLYNOMIAL
for example
2x+3=ax+3
implies a = 2
for all x
or, it will unequal at many points
Can you tell me the name of theorem
多项式唯一性定理
Also can't polynonials value be different
actually this
it is difficult to explain
but you should remember
if two polynomials equal
they are the same thing
otherwise, they just intersect at some points
you can say, the values of them equal, but you cant say they equal

A calculus challenge I’ve had on the back of my mind for years is: venn diagrams are made from two intersecting circles, when they overlap there is all intersection and no individual circle area, when they are separate there is no intersection area, so how far apart should the circle centers be to get three equal size areas to make the perfect Venn diagram?

Okok i see
I’m not going to help you because it’s hard and a time sink, but if you’re looking for something to do, go for it!
And I’d love to see your solution

Oh
I get it
When they intersect all the 3 areas should be same
Okok
I get it
Then u asking how much should the center's be far
Okok
I get it
@yaku
@cedar wagon
Need help
Yeah
say the radius of the circle is 1
so areas are pi
pi/2* whoops
we can split the middle eye shape in half
both vertically and horizontally
to get a curved triangle with area pi/8
then you basically need $\int_a^1 \sqrt{1-x^2}dx=\frac{\pi}{8}$
then find a
Underfull \hbox (badness 10000)
what
U were explaining
im done explaining
√(1-x^2)
I know this integral
x√(1-x^2)/2 +(1/2)arcsinx=π/8
Putting the limits
,w calculate a integral from a to 1 √(1-x^2)=π/8
,w fnInt(sqrt(1-x^2),x,t,1)= pi/8
No bruh

@icy sky
The

Lol
-1?

the two center need to be approximately 0.8r apart
What does that give for areas?
(pi/2)r^2 as expected
Okok

Do you know what is piecewise function?
yeah a little bit
I will hint you that graph looks like 2 lines to me
only if I know what is those two lines and when to choose each one
well... would you agree that the graph looks like two linear functions smash together to make a V?
yes
then can I split that into 2 functions, each represent each line?
yes
yeah... that is how you solve the problem. You find that line and find the condition of choosing one line over the other
@astral blaze can like solve subfunction and domain for a, and tell me how step by step?
only if you want
sure. you know that |x| is just x for x > 0, right?
doesn't matter
yeah
that means I know that one of my line is f(x) = x for the case of |x|
and that applies for x > 0
mhm
so that is one of your subfunction (for the case of |x|)
another line is just the case of x <= 0
Here, in your problem, you are dealing with |x-3|
use the same principle and you should be able to do that. Again, notice that for x <= 0, |x| = -x (why?)

hey i need help with this adding fraction problem.
1/2 + 7/26 + 3/32 + 3/8
so i used 32 as the main denominator and added the numerators and got 14. is the answer 14/32?
32??
yes bc of 3/32
No. You're meant to find the lowest common multiple of the denominators
That'll be the denominator
how can i find it
also useful trick, the least common multiple of 4 numbers can be simplified from $\text{lcm}(a,b,c,d,\dots)$ to $\text{lcm}(\lcm(a,b,c),d)$.
I will just send a vi
and since 2,32, and 8 are divisible, lcm(2,32,8) is 32.

this question has been driving me crazy
how am i supposed to make a function that looks similar to that
Looks like a sine function
it does, but
how would iget it to be like that
since sine is usually just neat with the same max and min
How would you need to change sine to make it look like that?
That’s true, how could you change that?
What else does it look like?
Besides the wavy sine part
it looks like its symmetric about the origin. it also looks like the same wave repeated over and over again, but downward?
like its the same pattern
a decreasing function?
Which one
negative cubic?
im not sure
Uh, y = -x
oh lol
Yeah
That graph is just the amalgamation of these 2 functions
If I had to guess
It’s a sine wave along the y = -x line
Or, y = sinx + (-x)
this is insane
It’s clever!
ive been dealing with trig graphs for years, but
i didnt know that its the amalgamation of the 2 functions
thats why sinx + 1 goes along x = 1
wow
this is interesting
Yep!
thanks!
That is exactly the intuition you should have here
mhm
have a great day, man
such an interesting fact
i am now satisfied

So i need help understanding WHY the period of this trig problem is just pi and how to calculate that, if anyone could explain it to me that would be very helpful as thats the only part i am stuck on. to save you time the final answer is y = 6cos2x
it's a little hard to see but if you look at the horizontal distance between two peaks it's π
it might be easier to see the horizontal distance between a peak and a trough, which is π/2
I apologize I cant make the image clearer
no i mean it's hard to see because of how they cut the image off
ahhh, yeah every problem is like that in this class sigh
you can use the half-period then, by looking at the (horizontal) distance between the peak and the trough
could it be that cosx from what ive noticed has always been on a pi period?
so it would always just be pi if its cosx? or no
cosine has a period of 2π
however, this is cos(2x) which is horizontally squished, so it has a period of π
Im confused, so would I still have to use the formula P = 2pi/b? to find this period
how does that formula work
Not sure, been struggling on this unit alot and while i know how to use the formula I dont know exactly how it works
okay, how do you use the formula?
like what pattern does the function have to have for it to work
eg what does b mean?
if you have the graph, you can see the period by just measuring it
measuring from which point?
peak to peak, or trough to trough
or really anywhere that's "the same"
like in this case, it dips below the x axis twice
you can measure from there, and those are a distance of π apart
Im trying to make sense of this i apologize if im not understanding as quick
So if i measure from the peak which is 6 for both, the distance is pi?
okay it says wavelength but that's basically the same as period, just one is in distance and one is in time
yes
do you understand why the distance is π?
I do not
look at the markings on the horizontal axis
the pi/2, pi and 3pi/2
this distance is π
this distance is also π
what's more, this distance is also π
and if you were to extend the wave in both directions, you'd see that the function repeats itself over and over again, at a distance of π each time

Plz check my work
how did you get 9 from
which question?
you already used it for this
Cuz the 6 is include in the bracket
ignore the ¾ I thought my keyboard has 3/2
but anyway it's wrong
I see the question has 2/3
I'm confused 
it says 2/3y in the question I don't get where are you getting 3/2 from
